- You might be interested to know that Component Software Corp. has been
- shipping a development environment for two months (on the Mac) with the following
- features:
-
- * safe subset of C++
- * generational scavenger garbage collector
- * incremental compiler and linker (only a couple of seconds between change and
- test)
- * edit, recompile, and relink running code
- * portable, event driven applications framework.
-
- and more. We are porting to Windows now, with other platforms later.
-
- feel free to email me if you want more info.
